THE MELON CROP OUTLOOK.
The Acreage as Per Cent. Greater
Than 1t was Last Year,

IAdu IL was baSC ear,
The reports from South Georgia concern
ing the watermelon crop are most encourag-
ing. The melons are maturing rapidly and
well, and the growth of the fruit is fully
equal TO that of any previous year. The es-
innate of the acreage now planted places it
at p per cent more than last year, and all
bearing large crops.
The South Georgia planters will begin
shipping about June Is, but Florida will be-
gin eight days earlier than that. The Sa-
, vannah, Florida and Western railway ex-
poets to haul between l 800 and 1000 cars
this season, and to excel the business of
any previous year. The record of the
number they have hauled in the last five
years gives an idea of the rapid growth of
the melon business In 1882 the road hauled
but $40 cars; in 1883, ,653 cars: in 1884.
LOO cars; in 1885, Z ,29S cars, and in 1886,
|, AS cars.
A squirt was made in 1888, but the other
years better illustrate the advance of that
interest. 1t is expected that this season
they will certainly carry more than in 1888
even, and may be a great deal more. Each
car represents l 900 melons. and if the num-
Der of cars hauled should reach 1000 they
would contain 1000, 900 melons.
